Looking for Mommy's due end of Feb. 2013!

[hollyw79]

Lch & SLC.. how are you feeling??

I have my checkup tomorrow... I'm realllllly hoping he can find the HB for me or I'm going to insist he does an u/s... even if I can't have it done right then and there. I am prettttttttttttttttttty sure I found it myself on my doppler yesterday for the first time though It was so quick and gone after just a few seconds and I couldn't find it again.. makes me wonder if I imagined it

I just want reassurance from my doctor

SLC~ happy 7 weeks!!

Lch~ You're close to double digit weeks

 

[SLCMommy]

Thank you! Yesterday my stomach was really uneasy. I vomited quite a bit even after I took my zofran medication.

lch- You are close to double digies. YAY!!

holly - eee! You are at the 9 week mark. Where I'm from 2nd trimester starts exactly at 13 weeks so you both are close!

 

[hollyw79]

are you taking 4mg or 8mg of zofran??? zofran is GOOD stuff.. it normally works pretty good!

I consider 2nd tri right at 13w0d too Wish I was there already

I think it's strange how some people say 2nd tri starts 14w 0d, I'm like..hmmm... no... LOL. I go by the Mayo Clinic guidelines I'm sure it all depends on where you are from though.

 

[hollyw79]

no way jose'!

and when you are 13w0d.. you are technically in your "14th week" so it's still right

 

[SLCMommy]

LOL that's right! Any baby name ideas?

 

[hollyw79]

oh gosh no!!!!! I haven't even started thinking... and I won't probably for a few weeks. What about you????

 

[SLCMommy]

oh gosh no!!!!! I haven't even started thinking... and I won't probably for a few weeks. What about you????

For a girl I really like the name Ivy. Right now I'm thinking Ivy Joy, Ivy Noelle or Ivy Victoria. Other first names I've played with are Ruby and Lucy, but they are popular.

I love Ivy Noelle- that flows so well!

I also really like Ruby and Lucy a lot!!!

What about boys?? Any idea on that yet?

 

[hollyw79]

Just got back from my appointment. As suspected- my doctor couldn't find the HB.. he tried and tried and tried and tried. He then said "I'm getting stressed out- *I* Am going to just bring you to the ultrasound room and do it myself!" I was SOOOOO glad he proactively offered to and that I didn't have to ask!

I got to see my little pip!!! All looked good and I got to see him/her wiggling the feet or legs or whatever you want to call it! Still very tiny but looks great for where I am at I am GLAD he couldn't find it on the doppler bc I got to see the baby instead!

Their machines suck~ but here is a picture- head is on the right hand side

[SLCMommy]

No idea for a boys name yet. Btw, real lovely ultrasound picture!! I'm kinda glad you got an ultrasound, there fun

 

[lch28]

awww holly that is a beautiful ultrasound.

10 weeks tomorrow yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! appointment in 1 week.. bigger yay!!!!!!!! lol.

slc hope the nausea eases up on you a bit.. i only had it for like a week and i am refusing to worry. i will hear the hb or get a u/s next week and everythings fine =]

 

[hollyw79]

I tell ya-- honestly ... I was/am worried about the nausea too- bc I don't have much of it at all!! I feel NOT pregnant more than I DO feel preggo! I'm just exhausted a lot- but I attribute that to having a 6 month old that refuses to sleep!!

Don't worry about the lack of symptoms at all!!!

Double digits tomorrow!

 

[MamaGA]

Hey y'all! I'm Jenni, 26yo. Expecting number 3. EDD Feb 3rd. Thought I'd say hi!

 

[hollyw79]

Congrats & welcome! Do you have boys or girls so far??? I have 2 boys already

 

[lch28]

welcome jenny!!

yup 10 weeks tomorrow! so happy. so im running out of my prenatals and they are 75 dollars a month. I was thinking of just getting some at the drug store over the counter instead but not sure if they are as good?? any ideas?

 

[hollyw79]

lch.. this is what I take:

https://www.amazon.com/Rainbow-Ligh...&qid=1342725790&sr=8-1&keywords=rainbow+light

this brand is VERY easy on the tummy.. has ginger in it to actually help relieve queasiness! I've been taking this brand for a long time.

They say you *should* take a prenatal with DHA in it nowadays.. and since mine doesn't have that~ I buy this to take it with it ~

https://www.amazon.com/Enfamil-Expe...UTF8&qid=1342725809&sr=8-1&keywords=lipil+dha

It's still A LOT, A LOT cheaper than buying expensive prenatals which really are not necessary!

I do also take an extra folic acid each day bc I know it's one of the most important things to take .. and you can't overdose on that.. anything extra is excreted through your urine.

 

[lch28]

hmm. im gonna see what they have at CVS and if not just cave and pick up my prescription.. its called prefera ob +DHA.

hi ladies can I join? Pregnant with my first and EDD is 23rd Feb. I have my booking in appointment with the midwife tomorrow and hopefully won't have to wait to much longer for a scan. How is everyone feeling with it so far? Any sickness? I've had nausea since about week 5 or 6, started dry having at week 8 and the vomiting started yesterday (week 9) NICE! XXX

 

[hollyw79]

Hi joo

I've been very, very tired and nauseous here and there but haven't thrown up once I hope it doesn't get much worse for you! The placenta should be taking over soon and that usually causes relief in symptoms!

Is this your first?
